I’ve been working on the design for my soap website. There’s so many options… the sky’s the limit, but it’s hard because I like so many different looks. Some of my favorites are repetitive motifs and florals. I’ve been collecting them to figure out which one I want to use. hmmmm… which one?
Don’t turn your back on wisdom, for she will protect you. Love her, and she will guard you. If you prize wisdom, she will exalt you. She will place a lovely wreath on your head; she will present you with a beautiful crown.
I love these old-time suits! I wish women still wore these. There’s something way more sexy about these than today’s [strings+triangles of cloth="why don't you just go naked"] bathing suits. Let’s celebrate feminine modesty, shall we?
A while back my mom-in-law gave me this art calendar that now sits on my coffee table in the living room. It’s the kind where you move to the next page everyday. It features famous works of fine art. I came across one that I love the other day. It’s a photograph by Man Ray from 1924 called Le Violon d’Ingres (first photograph in the bunch). I thought it was so beautiful, so I looked up more work by Man Ray and now he’s one of my favorites!
Man Ray was born with the name Emmanuel Radnitzky. He was an American artist who spent most of his career in Paris, France. Although he explored many forms of art such as film, painting, sculpture, collage, assemblage, performance and conceptual art, Man Ray was best known for his avant-garde fashion and portrait photography.
